...game and a long practice drill was held in place of a scrimmage yesterday. Coach Cutts had several squads of line-men at work falling on the ball, breaking through, running down under kicks and blocking off. A squad of linemen, including Grant, Nourse, Burr, Fish, Newhall, Starr, Brennan, Butt, Cutting, and Wendell, were under the charge of Coach Daly who drilled them in delayed passing and straight line bucks, and paid particular attention to the tackles running from position through the other side of the line. Leary coached the ends, Bird, Forster, Houston, and Blumer, in catching forward passes...
...tried out yesterday, Grant and Brennan showed up especially well. Grant was right with the ball all the time, was down under kicks with the ends, and was always at hand to pull along the man who was carrying the ball.

Bates' only score came as the result of a muffed punt by Rand who was tackled hard just as he caught the ball, Schumacher kicking a placement goal from the 32-yard line. Time was called shortly after the next kick-off, with the ball on Bates' 12-yard line...
